Drinks

A special area will house a ‘festival style’ bar with 32 taps serving artisan ales, and other pop-up alcohol stalls.

But those used to enjoying a pint from the micro-pubs and bars down Baker and Bedford Street may be disappointed - as only The Chairman will make the short trip across to Centre Square to serve thirsty market-goers.

Also on offer will be the Tipple Truck, Steam Machine Brew, the Mussel Pot and the MOKA coffee stall.

Security

Wardens currently patrol Bedford and Baker Street when they are used for the market, and the same number will be in operation at Centre Square.

Cleveland Police has also been made aware of the event and town centre officers will make informal patrols.

Toilets

Twelve porta-loos will be provided at the market, ten regular and two with disabled access, and they will be located close to mima and Middlesbrough Library.

New attractions - including live tattooing and yard games

Live tattooing and family friendly yard games are among the new attractions at the event, which kicks off at noon.

It will see tattooists from Skins and Needles doing live demonstrations in the square - although all those being tattooed in Centre Square will have pre-booked with the Linthorpe Road-based business and no-one will be able to turn up and be tattooed on the day.

There will also be yard games on offer for all the family which are totally free including hula-hoops, egg and spoon and sack races, target practice, gigantic snakes and ladders, massive dominoes and much, much more.
